I'm not famous or rich but I use psuedomous accounts, like this one, for what I consider to be good reasons. It is a kind of deception to try to maintain my privacy ... and I have no problem with that. It would be interesting to find an alt Elon account but only as scandalous as the worst thing he said with it.
Every single person's mind is going to become overloaded at a certain stress & task complexity threshold. Establishing where exactly that point is for a given person is difficult/impossible - e.g. throwing pilots into genuine life-threatening situations to test their responses doesn't seem ethical.
> cure for aging would be very unlikely to reach everyone

The story makes the point that governments will be incentivized to distribute the cure to everyone as fast as possible. Considering the US spends 1/7th of GDP for healthcare and the majority of those health problems are age related. Covid-19 showed us that administering something to an entire population in a quick manner can be done and isn't even that costly.

> And if it did, we'd have to deal with tremendous demographic pressures

What kind of demographic pressures are you talking about?
This is just "might makes right" bullshit with slightly prettier framing.
It's a force of habit, parameters would be more accurate (almost everyone uses them interchangeably nowadays)
That's nice but clearly not enough to compete with Google Photos.

Hence why Apple started sending photo hashes to their servers for indexing by default.

There's only so much offline computing power.
I and everyone I've talked to thinks it's fine as does independent journalists. However, there's a class divide here that people fail to accept. There's also the mechanics of how class works which explains both of these.

Bin Laden being from a billionaire oil family gave him the protection needed to orchestrate the attack. The same kind of protection that Epstein enjoyed.

Whenever someone becomes a much bigger news story, this is usually why. Take Jamal Kashoggi for instance - he was the nephew of the billionare adnan kashoggi. If you think his death would have received equivalent international coverage had he not been connected to multiple billions of dollars, I'd have to disagree.

This is insanely sticky. Take Ruja Ignatova or Jho Low for instance, criminals that stole billions that you've probably never heard of. The first one, top 10 fugitive, $5 million reward, on the FBI most wanted list. Somehow stealing a billion puts you in the media protection club regardless.

The phenomenon is real. Sean Combs is another example. Or how the people imprisoned for running the scams leading to 2008 is a solid Zero.
I don't know why but I always find these high resolution physics simulations/eye candy to the thing that really blows my mind about how much processing is done inside of a cpu/gpu. I watched a two minute short earlier today from the cockpit of a plane declaring an emergency and needing to take a runway at an airport and it wasn't until right at the end that I realized the video wasn't real...it was from a simulator or video game of some kind. Yet still seeing swirly colors on a screen still is what does it for me.

Weird.

I would consider the information from the FAQ to be a clear sign that you shouldn't really trust the output of this service, even if you didn't know that Chat GPT shouldn't be trusted.
Neither is Apple, FTA.
The tone in the "The Timeline" section seems apologetic:

> The initial PR had a timeline of “handwaving, half a year”. It was clear to all of us that it might very well be entirely off, and we’re not disappointed that it was.

I'm amazed that you estimated it at so little time originally, and I'm amazed you shipped it in full in just 2 years. Congrats!

The extended footage shows that the plane was not slowing down much.
The developer-to-user trust required in the context of open-source software is substantially less than in proprietary software. this much is evident.

I know rust-fish is being used on at least some non-x86_64 non-aarch64 routers because we've accepted patches by those users to make it build on platforms without native 64-bit CAS.
>A west coast HSR network is just obviously practical! Beijing-Shanghai HSR is 1300km; SF to Seattle would be the same. It'd be 4-5h on a train. Right now it's 2.5 hours on a plane plus a recommended 1.5 hours for security and boarding plus transfers on each side--I'd rather take a high speed train If I could! SF to LA could be ~3h. 90 minutes on a plane plus lead time and transfer times and it's competitive. Again.

So just to be clear you are saying at best the time difference between flight and HSR would be minimal - so where is the payoff for the billions the infrastructure would take to build. If it's purely capacity couldn't you spend a fraction of the billions you'd spend on the new infrastructure to bolster the existing system?
Many of these suggestions are ridiculous. I think either eliminate the three pointer or allow goaltending on three pointers.

Gregg Popovich was right in pointing out that it was a gimmick introduced by the ABA and makes the game worse. Every team plays too similarly now, and it’s not exciting to see the reduced athleticism.
Encryption does not automatically mean secure. Encryptions can and will be broken. Any flaw in their implementation (which nobody can verify) would render encryption useless…
Oh look an ignorant and nasty comment on the Internet
It's absolutely bonkers to think that the leadership of OpenAI thought to themselves: "This employee who spilled the beans on our use of copyrighted material, we better off him before he says more." That's just nuts. It's the weakest-sauce of possible things to blow a whistle on anyway, given how content owners are already pitchforks-out against AI companies since day one. He's a random employee who came out and said "That obvious thing you all think OpenAI is doing (slurping in copyrighted data)... yup they did that." And exactly how woult killing him would fix their problem anyway?

People here are indulging in fantasy.
It depends on how the parallelism is implemented, e.g. distributed data parallel (DDP) to synchronize gradients: https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/ddp_tutorial.html

making the jobs application (and hiring) market a single market will make it more efficient, and cut out a lot of middlemen inefficiencies. I like it.

You as a hiring company can pay to have a 2nd website, but posting it to the gov't portal is a requirement. The information, such as conditions, salary (range), experience, location etc, are all in standardized format. If you're found to be lying, it's a federal crime (because of fraud and interstate commerce for example).

Applicants also must have gov't issued ID (such as social security), so you cannot be fake.
Nice find!

Although, it seems to have been only available/produced in Brazil, Columbia, Russia, Uzbekistan, which I'd argue is in line with my original sentiment.
It sounds like there was an engine out due to a bird strike. The pilot might not have noticed the gear alarm because of the engine alarm.
Absolute $$$ doesn't matter if they can't get housing.

I'm suggesting that you should call your congressman and say that getting a job is a problem right now and automated applicants could be contributing to it (we don't know the full story, but making noise about it might at least inspire some investigation by those who have the ability to get the facts). I don't think it should be a crime to automate a job application, and I have no problem with it from an ethical point of view long as the application is made truthfully and in good faith by a reasonably qualified applicant and there is real intent to follow up on it.

But if that isn't the case, there's no reasonably good safety mechanism to mitigate the massive amount of harm that a determined bad faith actor could cause to the economy.

But making false claims about your work history (as could be the case with the one using ChatGPT to answer questions) is a problem, isn't it? And it's wonderful to see these rebuttals made against a hypothetical something that already happened.

From what I read it's possible for a bird strike to disrupt hydraulics. However there were probably a few additional engineering or pilot errors because that should not prevent a plane from putting down its landing gear, and a lack of landing gear should not prevent the plane from slowing down enough to not crash.

Its cases like these where I think the lining up of Swiss chesse model for failure makes a lot of sense

Apple sells their products in oppressive regimes which force them to implement region specific features. E.g. China has their own iCloud, presumeably so it can be easily snooped on.

If they were to add this anti-CSAM feature, it is not unreasonable to think that Apple would be forced to add non-CSAM stuff to the database in these countries, e.g. anything against a local dictatorship/ etc. Adding the feature would only catch the low hanging CSAM fruit, at the cost of great privacy and probably human life. If it was going to stop CSAM once and for all, it could possibly be justified, but that's not the case.
Not sure why your comment was flagged. I also somewhat regret using base58 UUIDs, but with sufficient DB and app-side helpers, and sufficient discipline to always convert at the edges, it became tolerable. It was the only option I could come up with to retrofit short IDs onto a system designed with UUIDs where a project owner decided our URLs needed to be shorter and prettier late in the development process.

Historically the people have usually sooner or later stabbed the king or kings, or at least the kings stabbed each other. In five years, I predict, either US goes through something like that or robotics cause this option no longer being possible, since no one wants the risk their own life versus superhuman drone & killerbot militia (probably going to be called something to direction: "safe automated guards") even when fighting against a CEO. The actual cruelty will be visible only once there's nothing you can do.

Aren't the government cuts sort of consistent with this? I would also be cutting, since in theory public servants or military who aren't bribed could step in, so you want as few of those who could still do something once they see the "bad" things done to the public. I'm uncertain about this and don't vother digging up though, could be that they are not cutting from everything.

> Perhaps the increase in homelessness is because local NIMBYS efficevly ban new housing projects?

No. Housing projects lead to nothing but misery and more homelessness.

The increases are almost 100% drug-driven. Because of drugs, people are not _exiting_ homelessness (the average time of being homeless is growing, according to the 2-year counts).

The answers, counterintuitively, to strengthen the NIMBYs and make sure it's impossible to build ANYTHING in cities. Then promote the remote work and suburbs/rural areas via tax incentives.

The US has millions of square kilometers of perfectly good land available for housing. There's zero reason to try to cram people into the Human Cube ( https://www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/the-human-cube-the-volume-of-... ).
Replication should have nothing to do with it.

If plotting to kill thousands is evil and should lead to an international manhunt to bring you into custody or kill you, plotting to kill tens of thousands should have consequences at least as severe, even if (especially if) you're hiding behind a corporation.

No landing gears = no brakes.

There are a few other ways to stop a plane, but none are as effective as applying brakes to the wheels.

The thrust reverser might not have been operational due to earlier bird strike.

There are speculations that the pilot might have been trying to extend the flaps and increase the angle of attack in a last-ditch effort to slow the plane, resulting in a surprisingly stable nose-up attitude as the plane skidded along the runway. (This is not an easy thing to maintain. Most planes landing on their bellies will skid sideways or roll over before long.) In any case, this could be a misinterpretation as the pilot could also have been trying to execute a go-around.
If you really didn't want your photos to be analyzed, would you be using an iPhone? Or any modern smartphone? Google photos doesn't have nearly the privacy focus and no HE whatsoever but I rarely see that mentioned here. It almost seems like Apple gets held to a higher standard just because they have privacy preserving initiatives. Do you use a keyboard on your iphone? You may not have heard but apple is tracking which emojis you type most often [0] and they get sent to apple servers.

All of these things can be true. Based on this (https://dqydj.com/historical-home-prices/) for the same time period of 2019 to 2023, the CPI-adjusted median home price in the US went up by roughly 21%. So, the average American can both see their income increase but also find a home further out of reach.

No definitely safer per hour. "In 2022, the fatality rate for people traveling by air was . 003 deaths per 100 million miles traveled. The death rate people in passenger cars and trucks on US highways was 0.57 per 100 million miles." [1]
Adjusting for a speed difference of 10x it's 0.03 for planes and 0.57 for cars. Which makes sense - it's pretty easy to crash a car, and much harder to crash a plane (there's not much to crash into in the air).

> asking users about every single minor feature

Then perhaps the system is of poor design and needs further work before being unleashed on users…
Floats are deterministic too (this winds up being helpful if you want to do something like test an algorithm on every single float); you just might get different deterministic outcomes on different compilation targets or with threaded intermediate values.

The argument is, as you suggest, that without randomness you don't have an LLM-like result any more. You _can_ use the most likely token every time, or beam search, or any number of other strategies to try to tease out an answer. Doing so gives you a completely different result distribution, and it's not even guaranteed to give a "likely" output (imagine, e.g., a string of tokens that are all 10% likely for any greedy choice, vs a different string where the first is 9% and the remainder are 90% -- with a 10-token answer the second option is 387 million times more likely with random sampling but will never happen with a simple deterministic strategy, and you can tweak the example slightly to keep beam search and similar from finding good results).

That brings up an interesting UI/UX question.

Suppose (as a simplified example) that you have a simple yes/no question and only know the answer probabilistically, something like "will it rain tomorrow" with an appropriate answer being "yes" 60% of the time and "no" 40%. Do you try to lengthen the answer to include that uncertainty? Do you respond "yes" always? 60% of the time? To 60% of the users and then deterministically for a period of time for each user to prevent flip-flopping answers?

The LD50 question is just a more complicated version of that conundrum. The model isn't quite sure. The question forces its hand a bit in terms of the classes of answers. What should its result distribution be?
